PATCH_FILE_READ_ERROR

Hello gurus,
when I import a queue in TEST mode with transaction SPAM, I get the following error "PATCH_FILE_READ_ERROR".
I am logged in the OS with <SID>adm and I logged into SAP with DDIC user. Any ideas what is wrong?

Hello,
Check file permission for the recent extracted .PATT files, check permissions of /usr/sap/trans/cofiles and /usr/sap/trans/data
Check if the disassembly was okay, retry the step to Load Patch into SPAM queue after performing a cleanup.
Regards,
Siddhesh

  • Error in phase: DISASSEMBLE Reason for error: PATCH_FILE_READ_ERROR

    Hello All
    I am applying support Package: SAPKB70009 on SAP ECC 6.0 for component SAP_BASIS with release 700.
    I am getting following error
    The import was stopped, since an error occurred during the phase
    DISASSEMBLE, which the Support Package Manager is unable to resolve
    without your input.
    After you have corrected the cause of the error, continue with the
    import by choosing Support Package -> Import queue from the initial
    screen of the Support Package Manager.
    The following details help you to analyze the problem:
         -   Error in phase: DISASSEMBLE
         -   Reason for error: PATCH_FILE_READ_ERROR
         -   Return code:  12
         -   Error message: OCS Package: SAPKB70009
    Guys can you please  shed some light on how to solve this issue.

    Hi,
    There might be 2 reaons for the error.
    1) corrupted files in EPS/in  or improper CAR of the files.
    2) the file permissions in EPS/in check whether the files are having proper permssions like 775 with owner <SID>adm

    Hi Vamshidhar,
    Check whether the option of disassembling data files is switched on.
    Go to transaction SPAM
    Go to Extra --> Settings
    Check whether the user <sid>adm has write authorization for the
    directory /usr/sap/trans/cofiles.
    The Add-On Installation Tool requires that the Change and Transport
    System (CTS) be configured correctly.

  • SAINT error in phase DISASSEMBLE

    Hi,
    I am performing Delta-upgrade of component ST-SER from 700_2007_1 to 700_2008_1 via SAINT on our Solution Manager 4.0 system. (Windows server 2003 / MS SQL)
    The SAR archive (KITLONB.SAR) is of 141 MB.
    while trying to uncar i get following message:
    SAPCAR: processing archive D:\SPS17\ST-SER_2008\Inst\KITLONB.SAR (version 2.01)
    x EPS/in/CSR0120031469_0029513.ATT
    x EPS/in/CSR0120031469_0029513.PAT
    SAPCAR: error reading from D:\SPS17\ST-SER_2008\Inst\KITLONB.SAR
    But the EPS files have been loaded in the system & visible in the queue as well.
    The import fails in phase DISASSEMBLE with following error:
    Error in phase - DISASSEMBLE
    Reason for error - PATCH_FILE_READ_ERROR
    Return code - 12
    Error message - OCS Package : SAPKITLONB
    File has Full Control given to groups Administrator, SAP_LocalAdmin and SYSTEM.
    What could be the reason?

    Check your SAPCAR executable. 
    File hasn't been uncared properly.  You may uncar on your desktop and then transfer to server. 
    Other option is to load from SAINT tool > Load > Package from Application Server > Give location and it will uncar at right place.
    Thanks,
